"Thank you for your support. I cannot appreciate you enough, guys!"
Chapter 91 When the clock came to four o’clock, Sandra felt like she had been waiting forever. Ever since Tony left, she had practically been counting every second of the minute, and every minute of the hour. She had never wished for a day to end like she did today. Sandra hurriedly packed her things and left the office. Tony had already sent her the address for their date, but she still had to shop for a dress and do her makeup. It was her first official date and she was not about to take it lightly. She wanted to be the best version of herself when in front of the man she had liked for long. “Off for your date already?” Ella asked when Sandra came to hand her some files. “Boss, how did you know?” “Tony told me. He was very excited and I could tell that you saying yes, meant the world to him.” “Oh, I don’t know boss. I just feel like I have been lonely for so long and I need to get out there and have some fun.” “Do you like him?” Sandra thought about it for a moment before sh
Chapter 92 After dinner, Tony dropped Sandra at her apartment. He took her all the way to the door and the two stood looking at each other for a while. “What now?” Sandra asked Tony. “I think it is time to say goodbye,” Tony said as he took her hand in his. Her palms were soft and warm and he felt like he was holding cotton. “Thank you for tonight. It was amazing.” Sandra smiled, revealing her two dimples that made her even more alluring. Tony smiled as he shook his head, “You were the amazing one. I could not have done this without you. Thank you for giving me the chance to dine with you.” When Tony finished his statement, he pulled Sandra into his arms and hugged her tightly. Sandra embraced him back as her heart trembled. Was she finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel? The two embraced each other in the cold wind for a while before Tony let go. He said in a gentle voice, “You should go to the house so that you don’t catch a cold.” Sandra looked at him for a while bef
Chapter 93 Early the next day, Sandra opened her groggy eyes. She felt not an unpleasant ache in her body and the memories of what happened yesterday flooded her mind. She turned her head to the other side of the bed and found a pair of clear eyes, that were full of love, staring at her. Tony smiled at the sleepy face, and greeted in a gentle voice, “Good morning.” Sandra smiled and greeted back, “Good morning.” Her smile was genuine and it was captured in both the man’s eyes and heart. Tony leaned over and kissed her on the lips. It was a one, long passionate kiss that left both of them breathless. Sandra smiled at Tony as she tried to catch her breath, “And that is definitely a good morning.” After cuddling in bed for a while, Sandra finally woke up. “If we continue like that, we will definitely be late for work.” Tony chuckled at her statement, “I cannot wait for the day you will make me not want to go to work.” … Tony wanted to send Sandra to work but unfortunately, he h
Chapter 94 Paul and Jane finally returned to the country after a few months. Ella went all out to prepare a feast for her best friends that she had missed so much. Although she was pregnant and her belly was already showing, it did not hinder her movements in the kitchen. With Daniel and the kids giving her a helping hand, they made a table full of delicious dishes in no time. Carl looked at his mother in admiration, “Mommy, you have gotten better at cooking. Have you been secretly learning?” Ella pinched her son’s chubby cheeks and smiled, “No, baby. Your mother was born a genius. Things like this just come naturally.” Carl nodded, “Yeah, Mommy is definitely a genius. Otherwise, you would not have given birth to such smart kids. We definitely got it from you.” He said with a serious expression. When Ella heard that, she felt as if a cupid arrow full of love had just been dozed in her heart. She felt so much love from her kids that her face warmed up. Daniel looked at his son an
Chapter 95 “What is this?” Ella asked when Daniel handed her a golden, well-decorated card that seemed to be an invitation. “It is an invitation card to our annual company celebration dinner. I want you to attend as my plus one.” “Hmm. I remember that I once attended when Grandpa was still alive but I can’t even remember how it was conducted.” “Just a few boring speeches and awarding the employees of the year.” “Okay. I wonder when my company would also be able to hold such functions.” Daniel hugged her and kissed her on the cheek, “Don’t worry. I am pretty sure that next year, you will be able to hold one. It has only been a few months since you established it and it is already doing so great.” Ella smiled lightly, “Thank you, darling, for your confidence in me.” “Can I request something from you?” Daniel asked. Although he knew that Ella would never refuse any of his requests, he still wanted to get his opinion. “What is it?” He cleared his throat and stated, “At this year’
Chapter 96 Ella and Daniel were the last to get out of the car. They were wearing matching outfits and Ella’s baby bump was visible. Her beauty took everyone’s breath away and the reporters were madly snapping photos. “Wow, I have to admit that in this entire city, I have not seen such a beautiful family. The cuteness is just too much.” Someone commented. “Look, our Madam Boss is pregnant again. Our boss doesn’t really like wasting time, right?” Daniel’s employees laughed at the statement. Some emotional people were already shedding tears just looking at the family that seemed to have walked out of an ancient painting. Ella held Daniel’s hand as she smiled at the camera and waved her hand. Seeing everything, she looked at the man’s side profile and smiled. She whispered in his ear, “Don’t you think that this is too much?” When Daniel heard that, he turned to look at his wife’s angelic face and his face broke into a happy smile. The smile made him appear even more handsome and it
Chapter 97 “Sandra, will you marry me?” The question came as a surprise to everyone, especially Sandra. She looked at Tony with wide eyes as tears streamed down her face. Was this man for real? They have not been in a relationship for even three months and he was already proposing? Her mind was confused and for a moment, she did not know what to do as she remained standing stiff as if she had been hit by lightning. Tony looked at her nervously. He knew that he had popped the question too soon but he was just following his heart. He realized that any moment he was with Sandra, the world would always be so beautiful that he would not want to let go of her for even a second. She was not scheming nor was she after his money. She was smart, understanding, beautiful, and above all, she loved him. He had wasted so much time on a fake relationship and he did not want to waste a single minute after coming across the real thing. He wanted to make Sandra his, and his alone. No one should c
Chapter 98 “I can’t believe that it is already Christmas,” Ella said excitedly as she looked at the decorations going around the house. Daniel hugged her from behind and nodded, “Time has gone really fast. Another year has come to an end just like that.” “There was a time that me and the kids could not even afford a Christmas tree. Looking at their excited faces now, fills my heart with joy.” “I am sorry, it was all my fault.” Ella turned around and looked at the man. “Why are you apologizing? That was in the past. This is going to be one of the best Christmas for me and the kids.” “Are you happy?” “Absolutely. I have so much to be grateful for this year, how could I not be happy?” “I am glad that you are happy.” Paul and Jane came over in the evening. Ella had also invited Tony and Sandra, so the house was fully loaded. They say that celebrating Christmas with your family and loved ones was the best feeling, and that was probably true. The only thing that could be heard in t

Chapter 114 (Last Chapter) They could not believe that she came from such a powerful family and that she had not used her background to make a name for herself in the Showbiz. Those who had laughed at her and made fun of her background, even coming here to specifically embarrass her felt their faces burn. They were so abashed that they wished they could just disappear in an instant. Although Daniel and Ella were not involved in the entertainment, their names were known all over the business world. Just a word from them and they could end their lives in an instant. They were so glad yet fearful that Clarissa had not used her family influence ever since she joined Showbiz, or else they could not have known how they died. Clarissa looked at her brothers and sister and continued the introduction, “My siblings’ identities are very sensitive due to the nature of their jobs, so they cannot reveal their faces or names to the public. But they are glad that there are so many people today to
Chapter 113 Since Clarissa had decided to go all out, she had invited her friends from Showbiz. A few of them knew of her real identity and they could not miss the opportunity to associate with the rich. The moment six o’clock hit, the gates to the first Diamond Hotel were opened and luxury cars entered one after another. When the fans and the reporters saw that, although it was just a birthday banquet, they felt as if they were here to attend some award ceremony. They were so excited that they could not stop screaming. One celebrity after another descended the luxury cars. Others had their managers and assistants with them while others were on their own. Seeing that even those from the rival companies had come, the fans and reporters were stunned. Was this really a normal birthday banquet, because the lineup on the red carpet, was one of a kind. The fans were screaming once in a while every moment they saw someone they liked. But all their focus was on the gate, waiting for th
Chapter 112 Their eighteenth birthday arrived in no time. Caleb, Castor, Clare, and Carl had all returned to the country. Castro was preparing to take over his mother’s position as the CEO of Diamond Real Estate Investment because Daniel could still hold his forte for a while at Edmond and Co. Caleb and Clare were rising in ranks because of their brilliant performance while Carl was still a ‘high school teacher.’ Clarissa was now a top-tier model and her fan base had over a billion fans. Everyone was curious about her mysterious background but she remained tight-lipped. Diamond Real Estate has expanded over the years and now it owns several hotels in the city. The quintuplet's eighteenth birthday was being held in the first hotel that Ella bought since it held precious memories for her and her family. The preparations began one week earlier. Every time Ella thought about how her kids were finally going to leave her care, and become independent, although they had never needed her f
Chapter 111 Outside the beautifully decorated garden, a huge table was placed in the middle and all kinds of dishes were arranged there. Seeing the kids appear, Jane stood up and helped Ella with the seating arrangement. The men sat down watching their wives busy around as they sipped their beers. Paul looked at the all-grown kids and he could not help but feel emotional. He said in a hoarse voice, “I can’t believe that time has moved so fast. I still remember the first time I held those rascals in my arms. It feels like yesterday, they are almost eighteen.” Daniel looked at his kids and his expression was filled with love and gentleness. Only if he had not been an ass back then, he would not have missed such a great moment. Every time he thought about how another man had experienced what was supposed his, although he was not in a romantic relationship with his wife, he always felt jealous. But he was glad that Ella had given him another princess whom he had spoiled to the exten
Chapter 110 Carl and the rest had returned to their rooms, and they were getting ready to start the Christmas celebrations. Clare looked at Carl and Caleb and revealed a worried expression. She asked in a small voice, “Have you guys noticed something weird about Castro? His expression before he left was like that of someone who had lost his wife.” Caleb nodded when he heard Clare. “I noticed too, the moment I saw him. When I asked him about it, he was not willing to say anything.” Carl looked at them with a calm expression, “He is going through a heartbreak. But he will be okay.” Both Caleb and Clare were stunned when they heard Carl. They shouted in unison, “What?” They knew that Castro loved Samantha and they had all encouraged him to pursue her. Samantha had finally accepted him and if he was heartbroken, then there was only one possibility, Samantha had ditched their brother. They did not believe for a moment that it was their brother’s fault. They knew how much he loved Sam
Chapter 109 At seven o’clock, Ella’s guests arrived one after another. She was standing at the door, welcoming them with a sweet smile on her never-aging face. Jane looked at her best friend and smiled happily. She moved closer and hugged her, “I have not seen you in a few weeks and you have become even more beautiful?” “You are the one who has become more beautiful. Seems like Paul has been treating you really well.” After the two ladies hugged, Ella saw a beautiful girl standing behind Jane. She was tall and her beautiful hair cascaded down her shoulders, all the way to her narrow waist. If you looked at her closely, you would realize that she had a striking resemblance to Jane. Ella was stunned when she saw Samantha. She thought she was hallucinating and she only came back to her senses when Samantha called out to her. “Auntie Ella, long time.” Ella opened her arms and hugged Samantha tightly, her eyes turning a little red. She was so emotional as she hugged the all-grown wo
Chapter 108 Carl’s heart trembled when he heard his father’s laugh. It was full of meaning and he even thought for a second that his father had found out about his secret identity. He was about to say something when his father spoke to him, “Come with me.” As Daniel said that, he stood up and walked towards the stairs. Carl hesitated for a moment before he followed his father. Daniel walked to his study room without looking back. Before he closed the door, he heard footsteps from behind. “Have a seat.” Carl was apprehensive as he looked at his father’s calm expression but he still sat down in the end. Daniel did not beat around the bush and immediately went to the main point, “Was your hunting tonight successful?” Carl could no longer hide the shock on his face. His father was looking at him, taking in all his expressions. Carl’s voice trembled slightly when he opened his mouth to speak, “How did you…” “You are my son. How could I not know?” Carl was startled. He thought his
Chapter 107 After dinner, the family of eight sat in front of the fireplace, watching TV. December was filled with cold air and Ella was huddled in Daniel’s arms, as she asked her kids about their experience in the army, and Carl’s life abroad. She looked at her daughter who had become beautiful, and then at her two sons who had become manly, that they could make a girl’s heart race and her gaze became emotional. “Was life too hard in the army?” Clare, Caleb, and Carl looked at their mother before they shared a glance. Clare cleared her throat and stated, “I won’t lie to you. It was tough and very exhausting at first. I even thought of coming back but I did not want to embarrass you and Dad, so I just had to grit my teeth and bear through it.” Caleb picked up from where Clare left and he continued to narrate, “We were placed in different training camps and we rarely saw each other. But when we did, Clare and I were still undergoing our training while Carl had already become a hi
